    They go together...like beer and cigarettes.. None require the other, but just feels so much better with it..

  9. Re:All we need on Internet Based Attacks in a Physical World · · Score: 1

    Somebody did, I think it was www.dogdoo.com (Ain't checking from work...) . It wasn't on fire, but still!

  10. Re:does this really require a readme.txt?? on How to Become A Spammer · · Score: 1

    If you buy viagra through spam, you do too... What if a dealer asks you "Yo, need any weed?" ?
    It wastes your time too... Not that I am for Spam, but your analogy made no sense...

  11. Re:More cartoon than movie... on 3D Computer Generated Movie From France · · Score: 1

    IMO, it is much better than plugger...

  13. Re:But it's illegal... on Xine Gets Native Sorenson3 Decoding · · Score: 2, Funny

    What's amusing is getting modded up when you confuse headlines...

  14. Re:I'm mirroring the entire site now for the torre on Install An Xbox/Linux Media System In Your Car · · Score: 1

    I forgot to mention that you don't need to zip a file, there can be 1 torrent for multiple files..

  15. Re:I'm mirroring the entire site now for the torre on Install An Xbox/Linux Media System In Your Car · · Score: 1

    Basically, what you have to do, is create the torrent and then "download it" over the files... Bittorrent will realize the files are complete, and it will seed without downloading obviously...

    I haven't found any linux software to generate the torrents...
    You can use MakeTorrent for windows...

  16. Re:The Matrix vs. The Thirteenth Floor on First Matrix Reloaded Review · · Score: 1

    I thought I was the only one too ! Everyone actually made fun of me for liking the 13th floor...

  17. Squid on Prince of Pop-ups · · Score: 1

    Somewhat on-topic... I recently setup Squid at home for fun, and I was wondering if there is a good pop-up/banner blocking plugin for it, or if it is possible to do it with a stock install?

  18. Re:Open Source on Why Open Source Doesn't Interoperate · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Talking about gaming, anyone has benchmarks of Gentoo's gaming-sources kernel compared to the vanilla one ? (Unreal 2003 benchmarks on nvidia would be interesting...) If not, I think I will do some on my crappy Geforce 2mx.... If the kernel brings it up to par, it means it's an awesome branch !

  19. Re:Lets start flaming !! on Why Open Source Doesn't Interoperate · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Hey don't forget TkDesk, because everybody knows TK themes and skins look 10 times better than GTK2 and QT3 ones !

  20. Re:Ooooh, I know the answer! on Why Open Source Doesn't Interoperate · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Shouldn't the answer be GNU/42 ?

  21. First post on Ebay Negative Feedback Lawsuit Dismissed · · Score: 5, Funny

    And I will TOTALLY sue you if you mod me down !

  22. It's a RAPT? on Paris, The City Of Wi-Fi? · · Score: 1

    Is that like a TRAP but encoded in 64bit industrial-strength WEP ?

  23. Re:Favorite console app on Who Needs XFree86? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Mine include screen, but irssi for IRC, and also, bitlbee, which is not really a console app, but more of a deamon. It is based on Gaim, and it provides an IRC server in which the channel #bitlbee is your contact list. To message someone, you just either /msg them or write their name followed by a colon and then your message. Great for MSN/ICQ/AIM over ssh when used with bitchx or irssi !

  24. Re:dumb technincal questions on War Driving To Be Protected In NH · · Score: 2, Informative

    The SSID is no protection, because you can use "any" as the ssid and you will get on most non-encrypted WiFi networks. And you'd be surprised at the amount of them not protected (around 75% in my area)

  25. Legal ? on War Driving To Be Protected In NH · · Score: 1

    I don't really see how wardriving itself could be illegal or legal, I mean, it's unethical to sniff the airwaves, but 2.4ghz is public. On the other hand, accessing the network without express permission is illegal, wireless or wired. Same goes for WEP... Breaking WEP is definitely illegal as someone is trying to protect their data and you have to break their security to read it.. Wardriving being illegal would mean that me walking with my laptop turned on downtown is illegal..
